Min’s Noodle House 渔家重庆小面

I’d been craving some bao buns and I liked the flavor of their pickled veggie + pork baos, though I have to say that I was slightly disappointed that the dough wasn’t fluffy and bouncy—I suspect that it is because it was frozen and wasn’t freshly made that day. I know there’s nothing wrong with having to make a big batch then freeze bc not every restaurant can afford making fresh everyday, but unavoidably that just slightly affected the texture. Even if the freezing wasn’t the factor, it was *something* during the bao making process that toughened the dough slightly. On top of that, the dough was also a bit thick; I usually take big bites, but even my big bite didn’t catch any meat when I first bit into it. I am curious about many things on their menu though and would love to come back to try more, especially since everything was so affordable!

Was making an attempt to go to the ramen place across the street but they were closed. It was pouring and Min’s was open. I will be dreaming about the flavors. The braised beef was absolutely excellent and I may just come back for more while in town for a conference this week.

Min’s Noodle House is BY FAR my favorite restaurant in Chicago. I might be biased because I live in Bridgeport, but it is beyond amazing regardless. My favorite dishes are the Chongqing Noodles, Sour & Spicy Glass Noodles and Szechuan Wontons. Everything I’ve tried has been amazing though. Min has never let me down. I am a big fan of spicy food, so this was right up my alley but they have options to make it less spicy or mild. The prices are also affordable. If Min’s Noodle House has no fans, then I am no longer on this planet. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Brown sugar Ice jelly was great! Dandan noodle is by far the best I have had in Chi, suan la fen(sour and spicy potato noodles) 酸辣粉was just ok, 尖椒鸡面was also delicious with fried chicken bits inside and a bit of spice. Roujiamo was actually pretty good with juicy meats, cilantro, and peppers. Be careful of what spice level you order because I usually can only handle mild spicy:/. Have been coming back multiple times and will knee coming back for dandan noodles, ice jelly-brown sugar one, soy milk drink and roujiamo!!

I googled “lunch Bridgeport” and this came up. OH. I’ll be back. Everything but. Everything!!!! I was most impressed by the $10 tapa tray with beef shank, woods ear mushroom, and braised eggs. 30/10. The spicy dumplings were also phenomenal. The dan dan noodle portion and the bao buns are heavy and BIG. I’d happy to share a platter with 1-2 other people. Overall highly recommend and will be adding to my Bridgeport archive.
